Previous story (July 18):

It looks like a new Kanye West album could release as soon as this week.

As we reported a day ago, Kanye was in the studio with Tyler, The Creator recently, footage of which was shared by Consequence. In the clip, we could see a whiteboard in the background with a tracklisting for his long delayed album, DONDA. Some new titles like ‘Remote’, ‘Daylight’, ‘Jonah’ and more were seen which were not mentioned on the tracklist unveiled by the rapper last year.

Rumors then surfaced on Saturday that Kanye was holding a private listening event for the album in Las Vegas where no cellphones were allowed. It looks like the reports were true.

Instagram sensation Justin Laboy tweeted about his experience of being at the listening along with NBA star Kevin Durant. He said that the album was done and dropping this week.

He went on to add that the production on the album, which is most probably still called DONDA, is “light years” ahead of its time and the bars sounds like he’s “broke” and “hungry.”

“The man changed the sound of music on this project,” he said. Stay tuned as more information about the album becomes available soon.
